“Never close your lips to those whom you have already opened your heart.”

“You have been so careful of me that I never had a child's heart. You have trained me so well that I never dreamed a child's dream. You have dealt so wisely with me, Father ,from my cradle to this hour, that I never had a child's belief or a child's fear.Mr. Gradgrind was quite moved by his success, and by this testimony to it. " My dear Louisa," said he, you abundantly repay my care. Kiss me, my dear girl.”

“Never say never”

“To conceal anything from those to whom I am attached, is not in my nature. I can never close my lips where I have opened my heart.”
